Thanks for your comment. The poll is meant to be unscientific, and the last option was meant to be tongue-and-cheek.

I generally think polls are an awful way to measure people's opinions, and that's why I encouraged people to weigh in here, as you did. What you had to say here tells me a lot more than if you had checked a button.

Another problem with polls is that even if done right, they'll tell you what people are thinking or how people are voting, but they'll never tell you why. So tell me, 30BoltwdAve, why you don't like Holub or Cole, if there have been chancellors in the past or at other schools you've liked better, or just what could be improved.

That's a good question, actually, and I probably should've included a few paragraphs of "how does this affect you?"

Essentially, public access has always been an under-utilized public service, but developments in video technology and editing software have made it so much easier for community members to contribute to their PEG stations.

And whereas once you would create content for a station that, admittedly, only a select few people in the community would see at a specific time, the OMP system would have those videos aggregated onto a single page for on-demand viewing, and distributed to stations across the country.

It's no secret that private media companies are going through a rough transition and have lost staff as a result, so I think an effective distribution platform for public television can really fill the gap, especially on the Web.
